Wholesale Gold Group Opens New Online Store

San Francisco, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/02/2012 -- Precious metal investors looking to purchase their bullion and coins online at WholesaleGoldGroup.com are in luck. The site’s founder and CEO Michael MacDonald has announced the release of an online shopping cart on its website. For the first time since the site’s inception, people can place their orders online.

What made MacDonald want to start processing credit card payments for his silver coins, gold bullion and other precious metal products? According to MacDonald, the old process of ordering from his site was fairly easy --but not as streamlined as it could be: “Because the bulk of our site’s marketing is done online we wanted to allow people to make purchases online. But due to the complex nature of precious metal investing, we ran into some roadblocks. After a lot of hard work by our IT department we now have a full shopping cart set up so that people can order a $20 Dollar Liberty Gold Coin like they would a book from Amazon.com.”

MacDonald is quick to emphasize the fact that this new shopping cart feature allows him to lower the minimum purchasing amount of $10,000: “Because setting up a new account with new customers was a bit expensive from our end we had to have a fairly high minimum purchase in order for us to stay in business. While we still have a minimum amount, the shopping cart has allowed us to become more efficient so we no longer have to make it as high as it was before.”
